I love spending time with my kids and painting is something we love to do. Now finger paint can be a tad messy so be prepared. I also like to add essential oils that are calming to finger paint so that they smell wonderful and help to keep a calming atmosphere.

3 Tablespoons sugar

1/2 teaspoon of salt

1/2 cup cornstarch

2 cups water

Combine items in a small saucepan on medium-low heat until mixture thickens. Cool and pour into containers. Add food coloring (I prefer all natural dyes), and essential oils (1-2 drops) of your favorite scent. I like lavender, peace and calming, peppermint, and thieves.
